Boca also defend effectively, averaging 0.67 goals conceded at home and recording clean sheets in 56% of matches, so this fixture should produce few goals. Both teams have won only 2 of their last 5 matches and scored 3 and 4 goals respectively during that period, further supporting the draw.

Despite decent xG figures of 1.73 for Boca and 1.37 for Estudiantes, low finishing efficiency and the highly defensive profiles of both teams support the BTTS: No pick.
